OZARK Technical Ceramics joined forces with TATEHO Chemical Industries

Team TATEHO Ozark – 200 Years Experience on Day 1!
On August 1, 2015, OZARK Technical Ceramics joined forces with TATEHO Chemical Industries. TATEHO is the longstanding premier producer of high quality MgO powders and world class MgO ceramics. The OZARK facility in the U.S. complements and supplements the capabilities of the TATEHO facility in Japan. This merger will provide new synergies and opportunities for further developments to benefit both operations and especially our customers and associated industries.

Although this announcement may come as a surprise to many of our charter customers, suppliers, and fellow professionals, it is the natural conclusion of a 30+ year business relationship between our two companies. This is especially timely with the turbulence in the fused MgO powder market the last decade where TATEHO was the only steady and stable force in the industry.
